 i think it's probably a injury of some sort, which has started to fungus, he needs to be quarantined so you can treat him..

i'd use melafix or summat similar Huh?

It's not fungus its to smooth My LFS thinks it could be Fish/carp pox which from what i have read on the internet it could well be. If it is fish pox then there is little I can do as it's a virus It's not suppose to be contagious and should clear up on it's own
